Splitting America at its seams

America is doomed.

I hate to be so pessimistic, but I truly believe that in just a few decades the United States will be the exact opposite of what its very name suggests. Rather than being united, it will be as divided as the Balkans.

In decades, not centuries, we will split apart like the Soviet Union into a loose confederation of autonomous states. People will refer to us like they do that area of the Balkans now known as The Former Yugoslavia, or similarly to the way Russia and its old republics are now known, as the old Soviet Union.

If the goal of this nation is reflected in our motto of E Pluribus Unum, out of many, one; then truly this 200-plus year experiment in representative democracy and melding ethnicities has failed, and failed spectacularly.

We have groups like La Raza Unida, whose members and supporters are calling for a Marxist revolution and refer to the state of California as “stolen, occupied Mexico.â€
